I have advised several friends to use it, and with happy results in every case. It is the one medicine above all others made to cure ca tarrh and it is worth its weight in gold. I thank God have found remedy can use with safety and that does all that is claimed for it. It is curing my deatness.-B. W. Sperry, Hartford, Conn. se12 eod6Lw2w

Variable MarkeI-LOsses in the Ear Iy Dealings But a Better Feeling AfterWard Western Union Leads the Turn and Closing Prices Are at Their Hest.
 NEW YORK, Sept. g. The opening was extraordinarily strong at ad- vances in the entire list extending to 1ss per cent and in special cases to over 9 per cent. Further slight gains were made in the early dealings when the best figures of the day were recorded, but the pressure to sell turned the course of prices down. ward and losses ranging up to 11s per cent. were sustained. The market then became feverish and unsettled but generally weak and relapsed into dull ness. In the afternoon, however, prices slowly crept up and in the last hour decided strength was developed under the lead of Western Union The close was quiet but firm at the best figures of the day.

THE GINGKo TREE.

One of the two gingko trees in this city is in fruit, an unusual occurrence in this coun- try The tree is a native of China and Japan, belonging to the yew sub-order of conifere. The fruit, which is nearly ripe, is about the size and shape of good sized crabapple. If the frost permits it to mature it's color will be yellow like the tomato. It is edible, but insipid, and the Chinese regard it as of me- dicinal value. The botanical name of the tree is Salisburia Adiantifolia. Its leaves are beautiful, alternate fan-shaped or wedge shaped, with the broad apex notched or cut thick and 1eathery, with fine longitudinal ribs, and of a light yellowish green color. Very few would fancy it member of the pine family-Hartford Courant

Tho Coast Defenses.

EDITOR NATIONAL REPUBLICAN,: The friends
OF Gen. Benet are very much amused at the
article in the REPUBLICAN, OF last Saturday,
which gives as Mr.. Randalrs reason for failure
TO appropriate the funds to build up coast de-
lenses his want OF confidence in the ordnance
department OF the army.
Gen. Benets friends say that Mr.. Raudalls s
methods OF defeating necessary appropriations
for public purposes IN order that he may bien'
nially pose before his Philadelphia constitu-
ents as the great congressional economist have
been too thoroughly exposed in the matter of
coast deienses 10 enable him to gull the couu-
try with any side issue. Mr.; Randall, they say,
used the same argument last, year this other
excuses which have done faithful service for
ten years past having been worn threadbarel,
and he induced his committee to report forti-
ticatiOns bill, creating u new board and making
the gigantic appropriation of Sl00,00Q for the
fiscal year TO commence the work OF building
up the coast defenses of the whole United
states. This sum would about buy one largo
gun, The estimate Of the Secretary OF War, a.
president OF the Notifications board of the
amount required TO build M the coast defenses
Is s2OC000 600 rer year ioI six years. Mr.. Ran
dalPs bill with now board wants slOO,O 900 per
Gen. Benet's friends also say that this hum
bug bill, which was exposed In the House by
Hon. Benz. Butterworth and killed in the Sem
ate on account OF its nonsensical character and
plain atlempttO ttiilo with the demands of the
country, is TO be brought forth again by MIR.
Randall, who VIII endeavor TO betog Congress
with assertions about the ordnance department
of the army, and thus effect another delay In
building up our deienses.
They assert also that, ms tho people have nov
taken the subject in their own hands, they will
demand of Mr. Randall something more sub.
stanlial than excuses, subierfuges, and eva
sons.
You know, Mr.. Editor, as all well-inlormed
men know, that Mr.. Randall. MS chairman oil
the committee on appropriations, has II in hi,
power to report bill giving the country the
protection from foreign invasion itdemands
and If Mr.. Randall IS anxious that his country
shall not be lett dcfenseless, as his friends say
he Is, the fortiication bill affords him the op
porunity TO Tcmte the charges of his enemies
and test his sincerity IN the matter.
